Dark and opaque ruby red still with a hint of bricking. Nose reveals some leather, oak, and floral tones. Slightly acidic attack with dried cherry and dark fruits but balances out. Hint of minerality.

Past its prime but has held up surprisingly well for its vintage and how well it was predicted to last. The palate has become a bit more acidic but still evinces cherries and leather. The nose is expressive and smoky. Some brick but the center remains vibrant ruby colored.
